May 28, 2007
, 2007
This action-packed adventure includes stops in West Dallas, Oak Cliff, Dallas, and the now modern ambush highways of Irving. See the last remaining building in Dallas where Bonnie worked as a young "porcelain skinned" waitress; where Clyde was hustled away daily by the "Laws" and the location of an attempted ambush of Bonnie and Clyde at Esters Road and Highway 183. Participants will also visit a "safe house" where a gunfight broke out between Clyde Barrow and six officers in 1933, the site of the Barrow's Star Service station as well as the graves of both Bonnie & Clyde.
The tour will be led by local author John Neal Phillips, Running with Bonnie and Clyde: The Ten Fast Years of Ralph Fults and My Life with Bonnie & Clyde--The Blanche Caldwell Barrow Memoirs.
Tour starts at the Hall of State parking lot. Tickets are $35 for DHS members, $45 for non members.
